Russell Sage College recognize the value of participation in and observance of religious obligations and practices by individual students. No student will be denied admission or suspended because a religious observance prevents participation in any examination, study, or work requirement. A student who intends to be absent from classes for a religious observance must notify each instructor in advance and make arrangements to complete the examination, study, or work missed. An opportunity will be provided for each student to make up any examination, study, or work requirement for an absence due to religious observance.
